[WATCH]- Shubman Gill Keeps Calm After Scoring 10th Century In IND vs WI 2nd Test

India captain Shubman Gill set the tone with a stellar performance on Day 2 of the second Test against the West Indies at Arun Jaitley Stadium in Delhi on Saturday, October 11, scoring his 10th Test century. The right-handed batsman reached the milestone off 177 balls, marking his first century against the West Indies, with an innings featuring 13 fours and a six.

Gill achieved the landmark in the 130th over of India’s first innings, just 14 overs after the lunch break. Facing a length delivery outside off from Khary Pierre, he drove it to cover point, and a misfield allowed him three runs. He acknowledged the applause from the crowd, teammates, and support staff by removing his cap and raising his bat.

The 26-year-old received a congratulatory hug from his batting partner, wicketkeeper-batsman Dhruv Jurel, but the Indian captain refrained from his usual bow celebration. You can watch the video here:
